Comment (by ericlewis):

 We'll also need to be able to specify the precision and scale for fixed-
 point data types. I suggest that we use the convention of defining the
 precision and scale in the 'type' field, and explode the string for
 parsing when we need to.

 {{{

 $stuff = new WP_Query( array(
         'meta_query' => array(
                 array(
                         'key' => '_edit_last',
                         'type' => 'decimal(3, 1)',
                         'compare' => '=',
                         'value' => 10.5
                 )
         )
 ) );

 }}}
